What I Wore, Then & Now, Part 5.

What I Wore (In Drawings) And How I Wear It Now. Part 5.

This is the fifth time I’ve taken an older What I Wore drawing, and updated it to how I wear it now. Because, believe it or not, I still own many of the pieces I drew years ago. They were favorites then for a reason!

Above is the updated version of the illustration for the August page on my birthday calendar. Below the original drawing. I honesty still own all these items, I just haven’t worn the flip flops for a long time. So, what I updated here are mostly the accessories and the food & drinks that are my current favorites to bring to a summer picnic. Which version do you prefer?

Sunny Summer Faves!

My Hot Summer Day Favorites, Illustrated, Of Course.

I´m not good with heat but I try to make the most of it. Usually that means finding shade in a forest or going for a refreshing swim in a cold lake or river. These are the things I bring along on such days.

What I Wore, Then & Now, Part 4.

What I Wore (In Drawings) And How I Wear It Now. Part 4.

This is the fourth time I’ve taken an older What I Wore drawing, and updated it to how I wear it now. Because, believe it or not, I still own many of the pieces I drew years ago. They were favorites then for a reason!

Above is the updated version of the illustration for the July page on my birthday calendar. Below the original drawing. This is an outfit that I still wear, although the sandals eventually didn’t survive all the long walks I did in them and needed to be replaced, with similar sandals. I also added my current favorite sunglasses. I still have the old ones, but don’t wear them much at the moment.

Just a few changes this time, but which version do you prefer? Also, If you like this you might like to follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for  more regular updates, or shop my illustrated postcards and other papergoods on Etsy.

What I Wore, Then & Now, Part 3.

What I Wore (In Drawings) And How I Wear It Now. Part 3.

This is the third time I’ve taken an older What I Wore drawing, and updated it to how I wear it now. Because, believe it or not, I still own many of the pieces I drew years ago. They were favorites then for a reason!

Above is the updated version of the illustration for the June page on my birthday calendar. Below the original drawing. This outfit is so “me” that I would still wear everything, except maybe the bikini top. I also drew a lipstick on the original one, that I don’t actually wear. In the new version I replaced it with a berry freestyle tint from The Body Shop, and the ring (I never wear any anymore) with earrings and piercings. I also choose my Pizza for President tote bag for this one, another long time favorite.

Just a few small changes this time, but which version do you prefer? Also, If you like this you might like to follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for  more regular updates, or shop my illustrated postcards and other papergoods on Etsy.

What I Wore, Then & Now, Part 2.

What I Wore (In Drawings) And How I Wear It Now. Part 2.

I thought it would be fun to take and older What I Wore drawing, and update it to how I wear it now. Because, believe it or not, I still own many of the pieces I drew years ago. (They were  favorites then for a reason.)

So above is the updated version of the illustration for the May page on my birthday calendar. I replaced the white embroidered top with a black embroidered blouse. I mostly wear black tops now, because I think it looks better with my chestnut hair (almost ginger really). The sunglasses broke, so I replaces them. Everything else I still use and wear, including one of my favorite vintage straw bags that I love for picnics. The clogs I actually never owned but still love and would like to wear.😉⁠

What I Wore (In Drawings) And How I Wear It Now.

I thought it would be fun to take and older What I Wore drawing, and update it to how I wear it now. Because, believe it or not, I still own many of the pieces I drew years ago. (They weren’t favorites then for no reason.)

So above is the updated version of the illustration for the April page on my birthday calendar. I replaced the stripes with an all black top (I’m over my stripey faze) and switched to a more practical backpack. I own many nice bags, but I almost never use them anymore because my backpack is just so much more comfortable and practical. I still love the denim skirt and my Converse All Stars.
